My Second Mother's Day

This is the angel that made me a mother. I love her so much! Happy mother's day to all the wonderful mother's I know, and whose examples I need everyday to help me in my mothering of this cutie pie!

Fattin' her up

Ten minutes ago I was doing dishes. Colette was playing behind me, which she usually does. She has some tupperware and cups that she likes to bang around and stack. Didn't think anything of her being quite because that is how she normally is.  So with soap covered hands, I turn around to say hi. Then I notice something shiny in her hands- I see that she got a hold of a stick of Crisco baking shortening! It was all over her face, hands, and clothes. She had to have made a couple tablespoons into her mouth! I quickly rinsed my hands and cleaned her up. I felt terrible, then I thought, well the doctor told me to put a couple pounds on her. I know she didn't think I would let her eat Crisco, but there you have it. A couple pounds added. ha.
